Aristotle's definition of money is rather lame. It is also lame for Max Keyser to use it and it also lame for the radio show host to take it a a gospel.
Can someone help me to find that old presentation made by Gavin back in 2010. That presentation indeed contains a decent definition of money and description of essential properties of money.
found it:

but he has a good enough nose to smell something big. he's operating from his gut. and he will be right.
Indeed. But hey, who the hell actually can understand Bitcoin? Devs and a bunch of people on this forum to higher or lesser degree and a few would be opponents like Kaminski. So while some are nitpicking here, Max is a bitcoin millionare, lol, and a valuable and respected ally.
